Hi all, just wondering if theres a decent setup for HC/MC hybrid tanks. I know one was posted a while ago, but since then theres been boosts to Weapon Lore and HC eyes introduced into the game.

My Melee Tank is about 92 Base STR, I want to keep him melee based, but have some decent ability in HC for levelling purposes as levelling a melee tank sucks. AoE on HC tanks however rules.

Anyone come up with a decent setup?

You'll need:

Moveon, Marine, Herc, PP
HC eye 2 (3 soon)
Batqueen arm
HBB3

Cap CS, but make sure you don't screw over your force and piercing resists.

NO PA

good con-armor setup (up to you to find out)

no pa? bullshit...

hc pa 3 = 16 hc = 16 str lvl = 80 points

why dont take them?

however, berserk 3 is better than marine, gives you more str points, you'll need them to cap your weapons without drugs.

HC PA 3 makes you slow as fuck. So why even bother pulling out a melee weapon then?

Zerk3 better than a marine????? I should realy start selling some zerk3's on trade then :-)

i've had 58 atl with pa3 and around 115 agi, several tests with 75 atl, 90 atl gave the same results like 58.

if you want a hc/mc tank with capped weapons without drugs, take the zerk3, cuz you become +15 mc = 15 str lvl ;)
marine does only 5 hc&mc = 10 str

there are two things making troubles: you havent got the bonus of 15 body&10 force. but i finally dealed out a setup with something around 520-540 health and some dura armor.

the hc gain is worth more points than the -25.

:rolleyes:

HC PA 3 takes off -25 ATL

MC PA 3 takes off -25 HC

wrong, it wouldnt be worthier. cuz HC&MC are over 100 base. if you wish to cap a CS / PoB w/o probs.

Yep,

Therefore, no pa, HC eye, Moveon, marine, hercules and PP.
Batqueen arm, and the xray headbone, chest, and experimental leg and foot.

You'll be a lethal speedy gonzales, which drops a rare from time to time :-)

you have over 100 base melee?

omfg...

really think about your setup and you will see all those wasted points. its waaaay more melee than needed.

:edit: from memory its +71 mc without drugs... bang a beast / xstrong combo for added flexability and keep the pa for resist nrg.

why refuse to use drugs when they increase combat efficiancy so much?

:edit2:
and as its -atl not mc whats the problem anyways? O_o

Sure, with drugs it isn't a problem, but why should i use them?
i'll cap the cs in dmg, freq and aim, what i need more?
PoB was also capped.

I don't play Tanks with drugs ;) that's it.

then you choose to sacrifice the resists on PA...

your choice of course..

im not saying you have to use it... im saying it works perfectly well in a hyb tank
